[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 2330431, member: 94045"] Hello and welcome, In the UK statins are offered to all diabetics. I say "offered" because that is all they can do. We are not obliged to accept them. I certainly wouldn't touch them with a barge pole. Do you know what your full cholesterol results were? (HDL, LDL and triglycerides) Without that information you can't make a decision. If you do know, perhaps you could share them with us and we can take it from there. There is a very informative thread on the forum. [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/cholesterol-and-statins.156985/[/URL] It is very long with hundreds of videos. You will need several days and lots of coffee to get through it! [/QUOTE]
